Hezbollah said Friday that Israel has never adhered to any ceasefire agreements, citing ongoing attacks on Lebanese villages [1, 2].
These allegations highlight the fragility of diplomatic efforts to stabilize the border, as the group justifies its continued military readiness based on perceived Israeli incursions into safe zones [4, 5].
A spokesperson for Hezbollah said the Israeli occupation has not committed to any ceasefire agreement from Nov. 27, 2024, through April 16, 2026 [3]. The group said that the Israeli military continues to target secure villages and that the resistance must remain alert to repel any aggression [4, 5].
Hezbollah also reported causing significant losses to the Israeli military. The group said that dozens of Israeli soldiers and officers died or were wounded [1, 3]. One report specified that 21 Israeli personnel died in recent raids [3] — though other reports describe the casualties as being in the dozens [1].
Combat operations were specifically noted around the Ali Al-Tahir hill and other secure village areas [1, 6]. The group said these actions are a direct response to the breach of previous agreements [4].
The group said the pattern of Israeli behavior proves that formal agreements are not respected by the Israeli government [2, 3].
“"The Israeli enemy has never committed to any ceasefire agreement,"”
The assertions by Hezbollah suggest a total collapse of trust in the ceasefire mechanisms established between 2024 and 2026. By citing specific dates of non-compliance and claiming casualties, the group is signaling that it views military readiness as the only viable deterrent against Israeli operations in southern Lebanon.
